Developing story first seen 2 hours ago
Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes earned $15 million in its opening weekend, far exceeding forecasts and ranking second at the US box office. Its performance is striking for a nearly three-hour documentary released in only 855 cinemas, showing strong audience demand for an arthouse film and potentially giving the genre a rare mainstream hit.
The film drew more than 2,000 sold-out screenings after strong reviews and word of mouth, with 70% of its opening crowds under 35; exit polls found 90% would definitely recommend it. Made for roughly $7 million, it set the biggest documentary opening in over 20 years and will expand nationwide. Paramount’s “Street Fighter” led the weekend with $30 million from 3,575 cinemas in North America and $51.1 million worldwide, despite mixed reviews and audience reactions.
